Abstract
Effective elimination of insoluble emulsified oils and soluble organic dyes has received extensively attention in wastewater treatment. In this work, a chitosan and polydopamine @ aramid nanofibers (CS&PDA@ANFs) aerogel membrane was fabricated through an integration methodology consisting of phase inversion and successive deposition of PDA and CS. The as-prepared aerogel membrane possessed a satisfactory three-dimensional interpenetrating network architecture with high porosity and desirable mechanical property. Furthermore, due to the synergistic effect of hydrophilic CS and PDA, the resultant membrane exhibited good superhydrophilicity and underwater superoleophobicity associated with favorable oil resistance/antioil fouling properties. The combination of the interconnected porous structures and super wettability endowed the aerogel membranes with desirable oil-in-water emulsion separation performance. Particularly, an extremely high permeation flux (3729 L/m2/h) and a rejection rate (99.3%) were achieved for the CS&PDA@ANFs membrane. Moreover, diverse dyes could be also adsorbed by the resultant membrane, and the equilibrium adsorption capacity of cationic dye malachite green could reach 36 mg/g, with a high rejection rate over 97%. This study indicated that the CS&PDA@ANFs aerogel membrane held great promise for practical applications in complex wastewater remediation.

Khodakarami M, Honaker R. Photothermal self-floating aerogels based on chitosan functionalized with polydopamine and carbon nanotubes for removal of arsenic from wastewater. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 912:169519. [PMID: 38141991 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2023.169519] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/02/2023] [Revised: 11/30/2023] [Accepted: 12/17/2023] [Indexed: 12/25/2023]
Abstract
Although wastewater disposal in evaporation ponds may be a cost-effective strategy for wastewater management, it overlooks water recycling and can possibly pose significant threats to the surrounding environment. The development of photothermal materials with functional groups capable of adsorbing toxic contaminants offers a promising opportunity for detoxification and potentially solar-driven recycling of wastewater disposed in evaporation ponds. In this study, ultralight aerogels based on chitosan (Ch), a natural biodegradable polymer, functionalized with mussel-inspired polydopamine (PDA) and carbon nanotubes (CNT) were fabricated through a facile approach and examined for the removal of arsenic from water. Three aerogels, namely chitosan, CNT/Ch, and PDA@CNT/Ch were fabricated and characterized using SEM, FTIR, TGA, XPS, and BET surface area analysis. Adsorption isotherms, thermodynamics, and kinetics were systematically investigated, revealing the feasibility of the fabricated aerogels for arsenic removal from aqueous solutions. The UV-Vis and photothermal analysis indicated excellent light-absorption and light-to-heat conversion performance of the functionalized aerogels. Arsenic adsorption by aerogels occurred rapidly and reached equilibrium within 30 to 60 min and was well-fitted by pseudo second-order kinetics model. The Langmuir model well described the adsorption isotherm, and the maximum adsorption capacities were found to be 31.5, 36.6, and 38.7 mg/g at neutral pH for chitosan, CNT/Ch, and PDA@CNT/Ch, respectively. The adsorption mechanism was studied by FTIR and XPS analysis and the adsorption pathway was evaluated using intraparticle diffusion model. This study broadens the scope of utilizing aerogels for the detoxification and potential recycling of wastewater from diverse sources and effluents disposed in evaporation ponds.

Abstract
Efficient sequestration of arsenic from drinking water is a global need. Herein we report eco-friendly porous hybrid adsorbent beads for removal of arsenic, through in situ synthesis of MIL-100(Fe) in the chitosan solvogel. To understand the structural vs. performance correlation, series of hybrid adsorbents were synthesized by modulating synthesis conditions like temperature, crystallization time, and concentration. Adsorbents were investigated using PXRD, FT-IR, SEM, and ICP-OES. Intriguing correlation between crystallinity and adsorption performance was observed as low and high crystalline MIL-100(Fe)-chitosan (ChitFe5 and ChitFe7, respectively) exhibited exceptional adsorption towards As5+ by removing it from water with 99% efficiency, whereas for As3+ species removal of about 85% was afforded. Adsorption isotherms indicated that increase in crystallinity (ChitFe5 -> ChitFe7), adsorption capacities of As5+ and As3+ increased from 23.2 to 64.5, and from 28.1 to 35.3 mg/g, respectively. Selectivity tests of the adsorbents towards As5+ and As3+ over competitive anions in the equimolar competitive systems having nitrates, sulfates, and carbonates demonstrated that the performance of the absorbents was fully maintained, relative to the control system. Through this study a highly selective and efficient adsorbent for arsenic species is designed and a clear insight into the structural tuning and its effect on adsorption performance is provided.

Abstract
In this research, a polymeric composite based on a chitosan/bacterial cellulose (CS/BC) matrix filled with MIL-100(Fe) particles was prepared to solve the recyclability of issue MIL-100(Fe) particles and utilized as an efficient adsorbent for removing dacarbazine (DTIC) from wastewater. The adsorption capacity of the composite (CS/BC-MIL) was higher than both MIL-100(Fe) and the CS/BC polymeric matrix. The adsorption performance of the fabricated composite was evaluated through kinetics and isotherm studies. While isotherm studies revealed that the adsorption of DTIC onto the adsorbent can be well described by the Freundlich model, kinetics studies indicated that a combination of factors, rather than a single rate-limiting factor, are responsible for the adsorption rate. Thermodynamics investigation showed that the adsorption of DTIC to CS/BC-MIL composite is exothermic and occurs spontaneously. Additionally, due to the negative entropy change, it was established that the adsorption is governed by the enthalpy change. Exploring the solution chemistry revealed that the optimum pH for the adsorption process was about 4. Moreover, the CS/BC-MIL can selectively adsorb DTIC in the presence of other pharmaceuticals like doxorubicin (DOX). Furthermore, regeneration investigations disclosed that the composite holds its structural features and has an acceptable adsorption capacity after several cycles of adsorption/desorption.

Abstract
Reducing nitrate in the secondary effluent from municipal wastewater treatment plants can prevent eutrophication, which can be achieved by constructed wetlands. Zero-valent iron has been used as electron donors for nitrate removal in constructed wetlands to deal with the low carbon-to-nitrogen ratio (C/N) problem, but the effects are often limited by passivation. In this study, micron zero-valent iron chitosan hydrogel balls were prepared as part of the substrate. The total nitrogen removal efficiency maintained at 85 %-96 % in 70 days. The chelating ability of chitosan could reduce the formation of iron oxides on the surface of iron particles and microbial cells, thus eliminating the passivation. Denitrification microorganisms were enriched and the expressions of denitrification genes were increased. The study provides new understandings of further improving the nitrate removal efficiency of constructed wetlands under low C/N and efficient use of iron materials.

Abstract
Currently, the use of magnetic physical adsorbents for detoxification is widely applied in the food industry; however, the fabrication of high-efficiency low-cost absorbents without damaging the nutritional quality of food is a major challenge. Herein, a simple, green, efficient, and cost-effective method for the magnetic solid-phase extraction of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) from edible oils and aqueous matrices was developed using a dopamine-loaded biomass chitosan-iron-cobalt spinel oxide nanocomposite (DC/CFOS NC). The characterization, physicochemical processes, mechanism, and reusability of DC/CFOS were systematically evaluated in detail. It was found that the adsorption characteristic of DC/CFOS NC was accurately represented by the pseudo-second-order kinetics (k2 = 0.199 g mg-1 min-1) and Freundlich isotherm models (Kf = 1.139 (mg g-1) (L mg-1), R2 = 0.991)), and its adsorptive process is feasible, spontaneous, and exothermic. Benefiting from its high specific surface area, microporous structure, and polar/non-polar active sites, the as-prepared DC/CFOS exhibited an excellent adsorption performance for AFB1 (50.0 μg mL-1), as measured using the Freundlich isotherm model. The mechanistic studies demonstrated that the synergistic effects of the surface complexation and electrostatic interactions between the functional groups of DC/CFOS NC and AFB1 were the dominant adsorption pathways. Besides, DC/CFOS exhibited negligible impacts on the nutritional quality of the oil after the removal process and storage. Thus, DC/CFOS NC showed sufficient efficacy and safety in the removal of AFB1 from contaminated edible oil.

Abstract
Chitosan is a modified natural carbohydrate polymer that has been found in the exoskeletons of crustaceans (e.g., lobsters, shrimps, krill, barnacles, crayfish, etc.), mollusks (octopus, oysters, squids, snails), algae (diatoms, brown algae, green algae), insects (silkworms, beetles, scorpions), and the cell walls of fungi (such as Ascomycetes, Basidiomycetes, and Phycomycetes; for example, Aspergillus niger and Penicillium notatum). However, it is mostly acquired from marine crustaceans such as shrimp shells. Chitosan-based composites often present superior chemical, physical, and mechanical properties compared to single chitosan by incorporating the benefits of both counterparts in the nanocomposites. The tunable surface chemistry, abundant surface-active sites, facilitation synthesize and functionalization, good recyclability, and economic viability make the chitosan-based materials potential adsorbents for effective and fast removal of a broad range of inorganic anions. This article reviews the different types of inorganic anions and their effects on the environment and human health. The development of the chitosan-based composites synthesis, the various parameters like initial concentration, pH, adsorbent dosage, temperature, the mechanism of adsorption, and regeneration of adsorbents are discussed in detail. Finally, the prospects and technical challenges are emphasized to improve the performance of chitosan-based composites in actual applications on a pilot or industrial scale.

Abstract
Heavy metal pollution in water bodies is a global concern. The prominent source of metal contamination in aqueous streams and groundwater is wastewater containing heavy metal ions. Elevated concentrations of heavy metals in water bodies can have a negative impact on water quality and public health. The most effective way to remove metal contaminants from drinking water is thought to be adsorption. A deacetylated derivative of chitin, chitosan, has a wide range of commercial uses since it is biocompatible, nontoxic, and biodegradable. Due to its exceptional adsorption behavior toward numerous hazardous heavy metals from aqueous solutions, chitosan and its modifications have drawn a lot of interest in recent years. Due to its remarkable adsorption behavior toward a range of dangerous heavy metals, chitosan is a possible agent for eliminating metals from aqueous solutions. The review has focused on the ideas of biosorption, its kinds, architectures, and characteristics, as well as using modified (physically and chemically modified) chitosan, blends, and composites to remove heavy metals from water. The main objective of the review is to describe the most important aspects of chitosan-based adsorbents that might be beneficial for enhancing the adsorption capabilities of modified chitosan and promoting the usage of this material in the removal of heavy metal pollutants.

Abstract
This study aimed to modify the porosity of chitosan beads using Na2CO3 as a porogen agent and to crosslink them with genipin for the immobilization of β-galactosidase from Aspergillus oryzae. Immobilization was performed under four different pH conditions (4.5, 6.0, 7.5, and 9.0), resulting in biocatalysts named B4, B6, B7, and B9, respectively. The immobilized enzymes were characterized for immobilization parameters and stability, including thermal, pH, storage, and operational stability. The optimal conditions for the support were determined as 50 mM Na2CO3. The biocatalyst exhibited nearly 100 % retention of initial activity after 5 h of incubation at different pH conditions and showed improved thermal stability compared to the free enzyme across all pH conditions. After 50 cycles of lactose hydrolysis, all biocatalysts retained at least 71 % of their initial activity, with B6 retaining nearly 100 %. Scanning electron microscopy revealed structural modifications, particularly in B4, leading to weakened support structure after reuse. Continuous lactose hydrolysis showed increased productivity from 41.3 to 48.1 g L-1 h-1 for B6, with 78.1 % retention of initial capacity. All biocatalysts retained >95 % activity when stored at 4 °C for 20 weeks, highlighting their suitability for enzyme immobilization in continuous and discontinuous bioprocesses.

Abstract
Persulfate activation is a forceful method for eliminating organic pollutants from coal chemical wastewater. In this study, an in-situ synthesis method was used to fabricate an iron-chitosan-derived biochar (Fe-CS@BC) nanocomposite catalyst using chitosan as a template. Fe was successfully imprinted into the newly synthesized catalyst. The Fe-CS@BC can activate persulfate to effectively degrade phenol. This point was confirmed by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The impact of various parameters on the removal rate was investigated in a single factor experiment. In Fe-CS@BC/PDS system, 95.96% of phenol (significantly higher than the original biochar of 34.33%) was removed within 45 min and 54.39% TOC within 2 h. The system showed superior efficiency over a broad pH value band from 3 to 9 and has a high degradation rate at ambient temperature. Free radical quenching experiment, EPR experiment and LSV experiment confirmed that multiple free radicals (including 1O2, SO4•-, O2•- and •OH) and electron transfer pathway combined to enhance phenol decomposition. Finally, the activation mechanism of persulfate by Fe-CS@BC was proposed to provide logical guidance on the treatment of organic pollutants in coal chemical wastewater.

[PMID: 37433237 DOI: 10.1016/j.enzmictec.2023.110283] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/09/2023] [Revised: 06/06/2023] [Accepted: 06/25/2023] [Indexed: 07/13/2023]
Abstract
One of the potentials of carrier-free cross-linked enzyme aggregates (CLEA) immobilization is the ability to be separated and reuse. Yet, it might be impeded by the poor mechanical stability resulting low recyclability. CLEA of CGTase from Bacillus lehensis G1 (CGTase G1-CLEA) using chitosan (CS) as a cross-linker demonstrated high activity recovery however, displayed poor reusability. Therefore, the relationship between mechanical strength and reusability is studied by enhancing the CS mechanical properties and applying a new co-aggregation approach. Herein, CS was chemically cross-linked with glutaraldehyde (GA) and GA was introduced as a co-aggregant (coGA). CGTase G1-CLEA developed using an improved synthesized chitosan-glutaraldehyde (CSGA) cross-linker and a new coGA technique showed to increase its mechanical stability which retained 63.4% and 52.2%, respectively compared to using CS that remained 33.1% of their initial activity after stirred at 500 rpm. The addition of GA impacted the morphology and interaction consequently stabilizing the CLEAs durability in production of cyclodextrins. As a result, the reusability of CGTase G1-CLEA with CSGA and coGA increased by 56.6% and 42.8%, respectively compared to previous CLEA after 5 cycles for 2 h of reaction. This verifies that the mechanical strength of immobilized enzyme influences the improvement of its operational stability.

Abstract
Active packaging is a novel strategy for maintaining the shelf life of products and ensuring their safety, freshness, and integrity that has emerged with the consumer demand for safer, healthier, and higher quality food. Nanofibers have received a lot of attention for the application in active food packaging due to their high specific surface area, high porosity, and high loading capacity of active substances. Three common methods (electrospinning, solution blow spinning, and centrifugal spinning) for the preparation of nanofibers in active food packaging and their influencing parameters are presented, and advantages and disadvantages between these methods are compared. The main natural and synthetic polymeric substrate materials for the nanofiber preparation are discussed; and the application of nanofibers in active packaging is elaborated. The current limitations and future trends are also discussed. There have been many studies on the preparation of nanofibers using substrate materials from different sources for active food packaging. However, most of these studies are still in the laboratory research stage. Solving the issues of preparation efficiency and cost of nanofibers is the key to their application in commercial food packaging.

Abstract
Two sorbents were developed from chitosan aminophosphonation: via one-pot process to produce aminophosphonated derivative (r-AP), followed by further pyrolysis to produce mesoporous improved biochar (IBC). Sorbents structures were elucidated using CHNP/O, XRD, BET, XPS, DLS, FTIR, and pHZPC-titration. The IBC exhibits an improved specific surface (262.12 m2/g) and mesopore size (8.34 nm) compared to its organic precursor (r-AP), 52.53 m2/g and 3.39 nm. IBC surface is also enriched with high electron density heteroatoms (P/O/N). These unique merits of porosity and surface-active-sites improved sorption efficiency. Sorption characteristics were determined for uranyl recovery, and binding mechanisms were elucidated using FTIR and XPS. The maximum sorption capacity increased from 0.571 to 1.974 mmol/g for r-AP and IBC, respectively, roughly correlated with the active-sites density per mass. Equilibrium occurred within 60/120 min, and the half-sorption-time (tHST) was decreased from 10.73 for r-AP to 5.48 min for IBC. Langmuir and pseudo-second-order equation fits experimental data well. Sorption is endothermic for IBC (whereas exothermic with r-AP), spontaneous, and governed by entropy change. Both sorbents show high durability over multiple-cycles with desorption efficiency >94 % over seven cycles using NaHCO3 (0.25 M). The sorbents efficiently tested for U(VI) recovery from acidic ore leachate with outstanding selectivity coefficients.

Abstract
Fabrication of highly-efficient enzymatic supports having excellent affinity to enzymes and superior mass transfer properties is highly desirable for enzymatic bio-catalysis. Herein, newly engineered chitosan macrospheres having interconnected and interlaced network pores are prepared via dual pore-forming strategy and applied as novel host for the effective immobilization of alkaline protease. The synergetic effect of SiO2 templates and gas-induced pore-forming agents play an important role in inhibiting the over-crosslinking of chitosan chains and promoting the elevation of interior porosity. Benefited from the highly exposed surface and abundant available binding sites, the as-developed porous support P2CSM achieves a maximum loading capacity of 43.8 ± 0.8 mg/g and ultra-high activity recovery of 92.4 % for alkaline protease. P2CSM is competent to effectively stabilize the structural conformation of alkaline protease from inactivation through the flexible covalent interaction. Considering these attributes, Protease@P2CSM demonstrates remarkably better structural stability, reusability and SDS-resistance than free alkaline protease, as well as excellent proteolytic ability, and the residual activity of Protease@P2CSM is evaluated as high as 70.3 % after 7 consecutive reuses. This work provides a promising avenue to construct highly-active enzyme-composites for widespread utilization in various practical applications.

Abstract
The chitosan-biochar composite is a clean and environmentally friendly immobilized microorganisms carrier. In this study, the chitosan-biochar composite as a carrier to immobilize a compound microbial agent contained Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Bacillus licheniformis, and investigated its role in the remediation of oil-contaminated soil. When using 1% (v/v) acetic acid, 3% (m/v) chitosan solution, 0.1% biochar, 4% (v/v) NaOH solution, freeze-drying 6 h, the optimal chitosan-biochar composite material could be obtained. The specific surfacearea of the material increased to 1.725 m2/g and the average pore size also increased from 130.2260 nm to 165.2980 nm after the addition of biochar through the analysis of specific surface area and pore size, which enlarged the contact area of microorganisms and crude oil with the material. SEM showed that the bacterial successfully adhered to the surface and internal of the material. Using FTIR, the results showed that the synthesis of composite carrier material was the covalent combination of -NH2 on chitosan and -COOH on biochar, forming a new chemical bond -NH-CO-. After 60 days of remediation of oil-contaminated soil, the removal rate of crude oil by chitosan-biochar composite immobilized microorganism method was 45.82%, which was 21.26% higher than that of natural remediation. Simultaneously, several oil-degrading bacteria increased at genus level, including Nocardioides (26.79%-33.09%), Bacillus (3.01%-4.10%), Dietzia (1.84%-5.56%), Pseudomonas (0-0.78%), among which Pseudomonas belongs to exogenous bacteria. The results indicated that the chitosan-biochar composite material has high application value in removing crude oil, and further provides a new strategy for bioremediation of oil-contaminated soil.

Abstract
Sea material is becoming increasingly popular and widely used as an adsorbent in wastewater treatment. Snail shell, a low-cost and natural animal waste material, has been shown to have a high calcium content (>99%) and a large potential surface area for the development of sustainable adsorbents. This paper presents a novel synthesis of methods for using snail shell absorbent materials in the treatment of wastewater containing heavy metals, textile dyes, and other organic substances. Modified biochar made from snail shells has gained popularity in recent years due to its numerous benefits. This paper discusses and analyzes modification methods, including impregnating with supplements, combining other adsorbents, synthesis of hydroxyapatite, co-precipitation, and the sol-gel method. The analysis of factors influencing adsorption efficiency revealed that pH, contact time, temperature, initial concentration, and adsorbent dose all have a significant impact on the adsorption process. Future research directions are also discussed in this paper as a result of presenting challenges for current snail adsorbents.

Abstract
Uncovering the value of waste materials is one of the keys to sustainability. In this current work, valorization of chitosan was pursued to fabricate a novel modified chitosan functional hydrogel using a process-efficient protocol. The fabrication proceeds by a one-pot and single-step C-Mannich condensation of chitosan (3% w/v), glutaraldehyde (20 eq.), and 4-hydroxycoumarin (40 eq.) at 22 °C in 3% v/v acetic acid. The Mannich base modified chitosan hydrogel (CS-MB) exhibits a dual-responsive swelling behavior in response to pH and temperature that has not been observed in any other hydrogel systems. Combining the pre-defined optimal swelling pH (pH = 4) and temperature (T = 22 °C), the CS-MB was screened for its Cu2+ adsorption capacity at this condition. The CS-MB achieved an optimal adsorption capacity of 12.0 mg/g with 1.2 g/L adsorbent dosage after 36 h with agitation. The adsorption of Cu2+ on the surface of CS-MB was verified by EDS, and an overview of the adsorption sites was exhibited by FT-IR. The simply fabricated novel CS-MB hydrogel under investigation presents a unique response to external stimuli that exhibits a promise in heavy metal removal from aqueous media.

Abstract
Chitosan is a biopolymer material extracted from marine biomass waste such as shrimp and crab shells, which has good biocompatibility and degradability with great potential for application in the field of wastewater treatment and soil remediation. The higher the degree of deacetylation (DD), the better the adsorption performance of chitosan. Chitin deacetylase (CDA) can specifically catalyze the deacetylate of chitin in a green reaction that is environmentally friendly. However, the scarcity of high yielding chitin deacetylase strains has been regarded as the technical bottleneck of chitosan green production. Here, we screened a natural chitin degrading bacterium from coastal mud and identified it as Bacillus cereus ZWT-08 by re-screening the chitin deacetylase activity and degree of deacetylation values. By optimizing the medium conditions and enzyme production process, ZWT-08 was cultured in fermentation medium with 1% (m/V) glucose and yeast extract at pH 6.0, 37°C, and a stirring speed of 180 r/min. After fermenting in 5 L fermenter for 48 h, the deacetylation activity of the supernatant reached 613.25 U/mL. Electron microscopic examination of the chitin substrate in the fermentation medium revealed a marshmallow-like fluffy texture on its structural surface. Meanwhile, 89.29% of the acetyl groups in this chitin substrate were removed by enzymatic digestion of chitin deacetylase produced by ZWT-08, resulting in the preparation of chitosan a degree of deacetylation higher than 90%. As an effective strain for chitosan production, Bacillus cereus ZWT-08 plays a positive role in the bioconversion of chitin and the upgrading of the chitosan industry.

Abstract
While nuclear energy with zero carbon emissions will continue to occupy an indispensable position in future scenarios for power generation, the proper disposal of nuclear waste is still highly challenging in many countries. Adsorption is currently one of the primary methods used for removal of cesium from wastewater. However, no available literature has systematically summarized advances and outlooks on the adsorptive removal of cesium, and research issues such as relevant adsorption mechanisms remain largely unexplored. In this study, a bibliometric analysis was used to quantitatively analyze 10141 publications in the Web of Science Core Collection that were published from 1900 to 2022. Current publication trends and active countries, most influential authors and institutions, journal distribution, and research hotspots and trends were reviewed and summarized. The results for the conceptual structure and evolution of investigations in this field showed three distinct periods of rapid development in recent decades. The first period concerned the scope, degree, and influences of pollution by cesium and the development of natural adsorbents. The second period included the exploration and verification of adsorption mechanisms, the fabrication and optimization of new materials, and the application of density functional theory for chemical calculations. The third period involved the development of more advanced biodegradable, nanoscale and synthetic materials with great potential for use as adsorbents as well as advances in engineering applications. Notably, the study showed that it is necessary to further enhance application-driven laboratory investigations. Future directions for research were proposed, such as the investigation of complex adsorption mechanisms, development of new materials, and engineering applications of materials developed in the laboratory. The findings will provide valuable insights and serve as a reference for researchers and policymakers as they address the adsorptive remediation of cases of pollution by cesium.

Abstract
Graphene oxide and chitosan microspheres modified with α−FeO(OH) (α−FeO(OH)/GOCS) are prepared and utilized to investigate the performance and mechanism for Cr(VI) removal from aqueous solutions and the possibility of Fe secondary pollution. Batch experiments were carried out to identify the effects of pH, mass, and volume ratio (m/v), coexisting ions, time (t), temperature (T), and Cr(VI) initial concentration (C0) on Cr(VI) removal, and to evaluate adsorption kinetics, equilibrium isotherm, and thermodynamics, as well as the possibility of Fe secondary pollution. The results showed that Cr(VI) adsorption increased with C0, t, and T but decreased with increasing pH and m/v. Coexisting ions inhibited Cr(VI) adsorption, and this inhibition increased with increasing concentration. The influence degrees of anions and cations on the Cr(VI) adsorption in descending order were SO42− > PO42− > NO3− > Cl− and Ca2+ > Mg2+ > Mn2+, respectively. The equilibrium adsorption capacity of Cr(VI) was the highest at 24.16 mg/g, and the removal rate was 97.69% under pH = 3, m/v = 1.0 g/L, T = 298.15 K, and C0 = 25 mg/L. Cr(VI) adsorption was well fitted to a pseudo-second-order kinetic model and was spontaneous and endothermic. The best fit of Cr(VI) adsorption with the Langmuir and Sips models indicated that it was a monolayer and heterogeneous adsorption. The fitted maximum adsorption capacity was 63.19 mg/g using the Sips model under 308.15 K. Cr(VI) removal mainly included electrostatic attraction between Cr(VI) oxyanions with surface Fe−OH2+, and the adsorbed Cr(VI) was partially reduced to Cr(III) and then precipitated on the surface. In addition, there was no Fe secondary pollution during Cr(VI) adsorption.

Abstract
The activity of micro-sized zero-valent iron (MZVI) material for nitrate removal in neutral pH and low C/N ratios water needs to be improved. In this study, micro-sized zero-valent iron@chitosan (MZVI@CS) material was synthesized through embedding MZVI particles into chitosan (CS) gel by sol-gel method, and was used for deep removal of NO3--N in the absence of organic carbon sources and neutral pH. The NO3--N removal rate of MZVI@CS was 0.37 mg-N·L-1·d-1 (dosage of 1%, initial pH = 7, 25 °C, initial nitrate concentration = 15 mg-N·L-1), which was 11.33 times higher than that of MZVI. The apparent activation energy (Ea) of MZVI@CS with nitrate was 38.23 kJ·mol-1. MZVI@CS can remove nitrate effectively at a low concentration (15 mg-N·L-1). A stable denitration rate (0.37-2.28 mg-N·L-1·d-1) could be maintained under weak acidic, neutral and alkaline conditions (pH = 5-9). More than 80% of reduced nitrate was converted to N2, and only a small amount was converted to NH4+ or NO2-. The gel structure of MZVI@CS eliminated the agglomeration between MZVI particles while the forming of Fe-CS chelates reduced the formation of iron oxide and solved the problems of passivation, hence successfully strengthened the NO3--N removal efficiency of MZVI. Therefore MZVI@CS has great application potential in NO3--N deep removal of water bodies with neutral pH and low C/N ratios.

Abstract
In this work, chitosan derivatives modified with Schiff base bearing benzenoid/heterocyclic moieties were successfully prepared via amidation reaction. Specific structural characterization was implemented using FTIR and 1H NMR, and the DS of chitosan derivatives were quantitatively calculated by ratio of hydrogen proton integral. Meanwhile, the antifungal activity against two common plant pathogenic fungi (Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense and Glomerella cingulata) was assayed in vitro by hyphal measurement, and data proved that the introduction of functional groups including benzene/heterocyclic compounds and Schiff base groups greatly enhanced the antifungal activity. Besides, the antioxidant efficiency was investigated in vitro, and all chitosan derivatives exhibited significantly increased antioxidant activity. Specially, the scavenging effect of 2SATCS was 96.62% at 1.6 mg/mL, which was close to the positive control VC (98.84%). These results indicated that chitosan derivatives with enhanced antifungal and antioxidant activities could serve as potential biomaterial for antifungal and antioxidant applications.

Abstract
Novel hydrogel systems based on polyacrylamide/chitosan (PAAM/chitosan) or polyacrylic acid/alginate (PAA/alginate) were prepared, characterized, and applied to reduce the concentrations of dyes in water. These hydrogels were synthetized via a semi-interpenetrating polymer network (semi-IPN) and then characterized by Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and their swelling capacities in water were measured. In the adsorption experiments, methylene blue (MB) was used as a cationic dye, and methyl orange (MO) was used as an anionic dye. The study was carried out using a successive batch method for the dye absorption process and an equilibrium system to investigate the adsorption of MO on PAAM/chitosan hydrogels and MB on PAA/alginate in separate experiments. The results showed that the target hydrogels were synthetized with high yield (more than 90%). The chemical structure of the hydrogels was corroborated by FTIR, and their high thermal stability was verified by TGA. The absorption of the MO dye was higher at pH 3.0 using PAAM/chitosan, and it had the ability to remove 43% of MO within 10 min using 0.05 g of hydrogel. The presence of interfering salts resulted in a 20–60% decrease in the absorption of MO. On the other hand, the absorption of the MB dye was higher at pH 8.5 using PAA/alginate, and it had the ability to remove 96% of MB within 10 min using 0.05 g of hydrogel, and its removal capacity was stable for interfering salts.

Abstract
In the last decade, adsorption has exhibited promising and effective outcomes as a treatment technique for wastewater contaminated with many types of pollutants such as heavy metals, dyes, pharmaceuticals, and bacteria. To achieve such effectiveness, a number of potential adsorbents have been synthesized and applied for water remediation and antimicrobial activities. Among these inorganic adsorbents (INAD), activated carbon, silica, metal oxide, metal nanoparticles, metal–organic fibers, and graphene oxide have been evaluated. In recent years, significant efforts have been made in the development of highly efficient adsorbent materials for gas and liquid phases. For gas capture and water decontamination, the most popular and known functionalization strategy is the chemical grafting of amine, due to its low cost, ecofriendliness, and effectiveness. In this context, various amines such as 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES), diethanolamine (DEA), dendrimer-based polyamidoamine (PAMAM), branched polyethyleneimine (PEI), and others are employed for the surface modification of INADs to constitute a large panel of resource and low-cost materials usable as an alternative to conventional treatments aimed at removing organic and inorganic pollutants and pathogenic bacteria. Amine-grafted INAD has long been considered as a promising approach for the adsorption of both inorganic and organic pollutants. The goal of this review is to provide an overview of surface modifications through amine grafting and their adsorption behavior under diverse conditions. Amine grafting strategies are investigated in terms of the effects of the solvent, temperature, and the concentration precursor. The literature survey presented in this work provides evidence of the significant potential of amine-grafted INAD to remove not only various contaminants separately from polluted water, but also to remove pollutant mixtures and bacteria.

Abstract
In this study, the roles of chitosan (CTS) in anaerobic digestion of Waste activated sludge (WAS) were investigated. The results show that the methane production potential of WAS is positively correlated with the CTS content. The presence of 30 g/kg total suspended solids CTS increased the cumulative methane production from 215 ± 1.52 to 272 ± 1.83 mL/g volatile suspended solids. The positively charged amino groups in CTS neutralize the hydroxyl and carboxyl groups of extracellular polymeric substances, which reduces the negative charge on the surface of sludge and promotes sludge agglomeration, thereby inhibiting the release of organic matter. CTS also inhibits hydrolysis and acidification by immobilizing hydrolases and acidulase enzymes. However, CTS flocculates humus to avoid its interference with electron transfer, thereby enhancing the activity of coenzyme F420 and methanogenesis. In addition, CTS increases the abundance of methanogens, which also contributes to methane production.
